Re: 65 dodge d100 crew cab AKA ''she wants the D''

one thing with using an ifs clip from a chevy or the dodge is that the steering box is mounted on the outside of the frame. the stock steering is on the inside of the frame behinds the axle, so it mean doing alittle extra to hook up the column no matter which one you are gonna use. CV set is fairly straight forward to bolt in to the frame. I have seen others use areostar setups also as the bolt in too, but need to do the bracket to rotate the angle of the rack towards the cab, either of these setups the rack is bolted in front of the cross member. another one is also a jag, weld or bolt in, rack is behind the crossmember, but it does have the chevy 4 3/4 bolt pattern with larger diameter studs. and to use a normal chevy wheel the jag hub will have to be turned down for the center to clean and be mounted flush. it all comes down to the budget, what wheels you would to run and have the same bolt pattern. just my .02 thrown I here not that its really worth that even.lol
